Many people assume that orthodontic treatments takes at least a year, but there are some fast treatments appearing on the market. One of our most popular treatments is 6 Month Smiles, a fixed brace treatment, which takes just 6 months to straighten the teeth.

About 6 Month Smiles

6 Month Smiles is a fixed brace system, which targets problems at the front of the mouth. The braces use self-ligating technology and specially designed memory wires to straighten the teeth and address problems with the social 6, the teeth that are visible when you smile. By concentrating on these teeth, the braces work very quickly, up to 50 per cent faster than traditional fixed braces.

6 Month Smiles also has additional benefits for patients; the braces are made from clear wires and tooth-coloured brackets, which make them very discreet and they use state of the art technology to prevent any pain. Treatment time is considerably shorter than other treatments, making this the perfect choice for patients who want results fast and those who are desperate to address issues in time for a special occasion.

How does treatment work?

6 Month Smiles works in a similar way to a traditional brace, as the brackets and wires produce forces, which move the teeth into position; however, these braces focus on the teeth at the front of the mouth only, and this allows them to work much faster.

This is an excellent treatment for patients who have minor or moderate orthodontic problems with their front teeth, but it is not suitable for patients with more complex needs; however, if you are not a suitable candidate, we have many other treatments on offer and will happily discuss other options with you to ensure we find the perfect fit.
